Description
The following is a bug:
sage: M = FiniteRankFreeModule(SR, 3, name='M') sage: e = M.basis('e') sage: t = SR.var('t', domain='real') sage: (2*e[0]).display() 2 e_0 sage: (t*e[0]).display() 0
The outcome of the last line should be t e_0
. This bug arises because of the nonzero check performed to avoid displaying zero components. This check is written as t != 0
, which returns False
. The fix proposed in this ticket is to replace it by not (t==0)
, which returns True
.

It's somewhat ugly, but a necessary evil because of how symbolic works (i.e., t could be 0).

I agree. Thanks for the review!
